Open hecklers up to your audience

Fellow speaker,

If you get a heckler in your audience, and you have most of the audience on your side, then open up the heckler's points to the audience's opinion.  And the audience can shut the heckler down.  For example, ask the audience, "Does anyone else have a problem with what I am saying?"

Shutting 'em down,

Tim
